there are moments when you operate in synchronicity with complete strangers because you're in thrall to the same creativity or just the same presence, and it's pretty damned lyrical.
This sounds like singing in a chorus of hundreds of voices, which I have done and it's like flying, sort of. But the chances of that sort of happenstance at a con are weighted so heavily against that I can't bring myself to gamble on it. I sort of envy those who can, and do.
She also had breakfast with freakin Tim Hutton. Woot. Honestly I'd rather hear about that than do it. I wouldn't be good trying to think of something to say.
See, if I had a chance to sit down with any of the SPN actors or writers, I would jump at the chance. Like, sit down and have a conversation. Like ita, though, I hate the crowd aspect of how they would all be in my way. And standing in line for hours to get an autograph and the chance to seem hi would be a big waste of time for me.
But if I could interview them? That would be awesome.
Maybe. If I wasn't there as a fan girl. I'd have lots of fun partying with you guys instead of standing in a line.
I will never know enough fans to make going for the people a thing, unless it were a Buffista-related event. But I can see that being a draw, if you already have a bunch of friends there.
Maybe like Allyson's parties, but with cons attached. Even so, I worked those, so it was different. They were a job, they were helping out a friend, and they were mini-Buffista-F2Fs. With some actors and writers and stuff there.
TWO WEEKS!
(that's when I'll be at a fan con in Seattle, with Plei and SA and Dana)
That would be fun I think.
It's in Seattle. I gave a passing thought to going because Perkins and Plei and SA and Dana, and it's in Seattle.
See, if it was JUST Perkins and SA and Plei and Dana, OKAY! But it will be all those OTHER people, who I'm sure are perfectly lovely people, and fannish and mostly so in a way similar to the way I am. But, no. Too many, too many strangers.
That's why Plai and I are going to be anti-social together!
